Strictly’s Anton Du Beke to become a dad at 50

He and girlfriend Hannah Summers announced the happy news with a super sweet tweet...

The Strictly Come Dancing family just keeps getting bigger!

Former pro dancer Aliona Kavanagh just announced her pregnancy with this bump-kiss snap, and now one of the show’s most famous faces - Anton Du Beke - has revealed he’s about to become a dad for the first time.

The 50-year-old dancer tweeted that he and 41-year-old girlfriend Hannah Summers are expecting twins.

“Hannah and I are delighted to announce that we are expecting twins in the spring. We are over the moon!” he wrote.

The joyous announcement was accompanied with a picture of a top hat and two pairs of tap shoes, which read: “We hear the tippety-tap of tiny feet.”

Hannah is thought to be just past the 3-month mark.

It’s been reported by numerous outlets that the couple - who’ve been together for 6 years - conceived through IVF.

Various outlets have also suggested that Anton might be a nice replacement for Len Goodman, who quit the show after 12 years on the judging panel.
